Bug ID: 400228
Summary: Dolphin suspected of corrupting its config file.
Product: dolphin
Version: unspecified
Platform: Manjaro
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: major
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: dolphin-bugs-n...@kde.org
Reporter: bus_kdezi...@semitwist.com
CC: elvis.angelac...@kde.org
Target Milestone: ---
As noted in Issue #400093 ("Dolphin crashes on startup on invalid XML config
file."), my ~/.local/share/kxmlgui5/dolphin/dolphinui.rc has become corrupted
(thus leading to an initially-mysterious inability to start Dolphin without it
immediately crashing) even though I have not made any edits to the file.
I am aware there are other potential and theoretical causes for this. However,
when an application-specific config file is corrupted, it's usually (even if
not always) the application itself that corrupted it, since after all, that's
the software that's most likely to touch the given file the most often.
Therefore, I am reporting it here so the developers are aware and can be on the
lookout for anything suspect in the code.
As in the other issue (#400093), I am pasting the corrupted file contents
below.
I looks to me like something must have done the following:
1. Loaded the file into a buffer.
2. Wrote a shorter version of the data into the same buffer.
3. Failed to correctly set the new shorter length of the buffer.
4. Wrote the newly-garbled buffer back out to disk.
